Chapter 716: Expanding the Strange Stone Business
She never thought that such a thing would happen during an elegant gathering. Does that mean that once the academy is built, many people will come?
In fact, this is normal for a big city, but He County is too small to accommodate such a small number of people.
As they walked along, Gao E felt that it was time to consider building an inn.
The amount of bricks and tiles fired has decreased recently. The two masters who make fine pottery said that it is too wasteful to fire bricks and tiles with the soil there. It seems that the number of brick kilns still needs to be maintained.
Whether building an academy or an inn, a lot of bricks and tiles are needed.
In this way, the land she had previously hoarded in He County could be put to good use.
When we arrived at Lei's snack bar, Lei was already preparing to close.
"Second sister-in-law." Lei saw Gao E coming out in a hurry.
"Why are they closing so early?" Gao E watched the diners leave disappointed.
"A lot of outsiders came today, and the food we prepared was sold out early." Lei said with a smile, "I have to buy more acorns this year, otherwise I won't be able to sell enough for a year."
"Then make some other jelly. Acorn jelly doesn't taste very good." Gao E said as she went into the store with Lei.
"Then my second sister-in-law will have to teach me." Lei said with a smile.
"Okay." Gao E nodded. As long as Lei was willing to do it, it would be fine.
"How is sister-in-law now?" Lei asked worriedly.
"My eldest brother asked Master An to make a wheelchair for him just like Mom's, but he's been too busy lately and Master An can't spare the time. I'm also too busy to have any time to go over and see him."
Lei sighed, "I closed early today and planned to go back and take a look."
She knew that she would most likely not be welcomed if she went back, but they were all family, and her eldest brother's family had to take care of their parents now, so they would naturally go over to visit more often when they had time.
"That's fine." Gao E really didn't have time.
If everyone still lived together, Gao E would definitely find a way to solve Yang's problem.
Now that everyone no longer lives in the same courtyard, Gao E doesn't want to bother with it as long as they don't visit each other and don't see each other for ten days or half a month.
Besides, Yang has not made any progress at all, and she is too lazy to care about such a person.
"By the way, how many people do you employ now?" Gao E suddenly asked.
"One." Lei didn't know what her second sister-in-law was going to do. "Actually, there are only so many things that can be sold every day."
After doing business for a while, Lei has also gained some experience.
"A lot of outsiders have come to He County this time, and they may go to Qingtan Gorge. See if you can go there to sell things for two days and earn more in one day." Gao E suggested.
"Really?" Lei was happy. "Then let me know when the time comes, so I can prepare more in advance."
"Okay." Gao E nodded.
Those people need to eat, and Lei's can also sell more things, which is a win-win situation.
Lei was going back to Baotou Village, and Gao E didn't stay long. After telling Gao about this, she went to find Mr. Jin again. However, Mr. Jin had not returned yet, so she had to wait in the yard.
Mrs. Jin poured tea for Gao E: "We don't have any good tea at home."
"No problem." Gao E looked around the yard. "Are the two young masters not at home?"
"I heard that Wanyilou was too busy, so two of them went over to help." Mrs. Jin's eyes dimmed when she mentioned her two sons.
Perhaps it's not just her two sons, but also the Jin family, who have been slaves for generations with no possibility of turning things around.
"I don't know what the two young masters are good at. I'll ask Manager Jin to find something for them to do." Gao E said with a smile.
"Ruyi told me that there is no rush." Mrs. Jin hesitated again and again and then lowered her head in silence.
"Mrs. Jin, just say what you want to say." Gao E looked at Mrs. Jin's hesitant look.
"Can we set up a tablet for our ancestors and burn incense during festivals?" Mrs. Jin asked cautiously.
They are now slaves of the Chen family. Even if Gao E doesn't treat them as slaves, she still needs to ask about this matter.
"Of course." Gao E didn't care much.
She knew that the Jin family had a branch in Qinzhou City. He survived by betraying the Jin family. He would probably go to the grave and might even take the position of the head of the family.
"Thank you so much." Mrs. Jin stood up.
After hearing what Mrs. Jin said, Gao E felt that the Chen family should also compile a family tree, otherwise they would not know the names of their ancestors for several generations.
It was almost noon when Mr. Jin finally came back. He was very excited to see Gao E here. He was just about to have lunch and go to Baotou Village to find his boss.
"It's great that the boss is here. I have something to discuss with you." Mr. Jin bowed.
"I just happened to have something to talk to Mr. Jin about." Gao E nodded.
Jin Gusheng felt a little embarrassed when he heard himself being addressed like that: "Boss, just call me Old Jin from now on?"
Now their whole family are slaves of the boss, and it is really embarrassing to be called that by the boss again.
"Then I'll still call you Uncle Jin." Gao E changed her address.
It is only a matter of time before the Jin family is rehabilitated, and Gao E does not want to harbor any grudges at this time.
Jin Gusheng hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Thank you, sir."
"What does Uncle Jin want from me?"
Jingusheng became interested: "Before, we wanted to expand the rare stone business, but the biggest problem was that the people who collected rare stones were all rich, so the sales volume was low. Now that the merchants coming to He County are all wealthy, we can take the opportunity to sell some, and maybe even become famous."
"I came to see Uncle Jin to discuss this matter." Gao E nodded.
In Chen Ke’s previous life memory, these two kinds of strange stones did not come from He County. It is possible that someone concealed the origin of the strange stones.
Although she didn't know what that person's purpose was, it was unnecessary for her now.
She couldn't sell the strange stones, but she could let people outside buy them.
"What does the boss think?" Jin Gusheng looked at Gao E.
"I want to use the momentum of the elegant gathering to promote the reputation of Mogu Stone." Gao E said directly, "Since these people admire literati, they will probably also like literati Mogu."
Jin Gusheng nodded. "We're on the same page. And the fine pottery, I see we've already made some. We'll use it at the gathering. I'm sure someone will like it."
Gao E also knew about the fine pottery, but she had never had the time to look at it. "If Uncle Jin thinks it's okay, then it must be okay."
The sudden influx of so many wealthy people in He County is a huge business opportunity, and anyone with a bit of common sense would not miss it.
Gao E had lunch here, and after lunch she went to find Ji Qiuniang. From a distance she saw a group of people gathered together indignantly, and she seemed to hear Ji Qiuniang's voice.
She was about to go over when she was stopped by Tang Song who came running over.
"What's wrong?" Gao E saw that Tang Song was so anxious that his hair was about to be singed.
"Why is Ji Qiuniang here?" Tang Song was a little overwhelmed.
"She...can't come?" Gao E looked at Tang Song, who seemed to be in a dilemma.
I had originally hoped that Tang Song could act as a peacemaker, but looking at his expression now, I guess he is already very repulsed by Ji Qiuniang.
"She and Kang Jingran don't get along, and they started fighting as soon as they met." Tang Song spread his hands.
